Regular price $300.00 Sale

Coach you to best BQ race for you and tune program to reach your BQ time at that venue.

We Will Coach You To Achieve Your Boston Qualifying Time

If you run the workouts we provide at the paces we specify, in our less-stress, more-gain plan that minimizes setbacks from aches and injuries, you should make your Boston Qualifying time. We'll tell you upfront how much of a stretch it will be.

Included in the 16-week training plan:

  • Initial assessment where we review your fitness and recent running & racing history as the basis for your BQ plan.
  • If a single BQ cycle might be insufficient, we'll tell you how much progress you're likely to make. We'll offer an immediate refund if you decide you don't wish to subscribe after all
  • Discussion of best BQ venue up front and ongoing. Downhill? Flat? Close? Far but fast?
  • Customized training schedule (built for you, around your schedule and preferred running locations) with detailed descriptions of each workout's paces, distance, and duration. 
  • Automatic GPS posting of your training log in your personal portal via GarminConnect, MapMyRun or Strava.
  • Two-way communication via training-log comments with tuning of online workout schedule and as needed. 
  • Special focus on preparatory races we'll suggest based on characteristics shared with your chosen BQ venue. Your performance in these races every four weeks drive adjustment of training paces and would be a great subject for monthly chat.  
  • Monthly phone call/check-in initiated by athlete.
  • Additional access to Coach via email and text.  
  • Form analysis (follow our simple instructions for taking a video of yourself running at race pace and send it to us) to achieve more efficient running form tuned for your chosen BQ race venue (a $100 value).
  • Runner-specific stretching and strength training tips to help you develop more efficient running techniques and avoid injury.
  • Cross training suggestions focused on greater speed and strength with lower impact and stress.
  • Fueling and hydration recommendations for best training and racing.
  • If required, injury advice and modification of training regiment for rapid recovery and most effective maintenance of conditioning already attained.
  • Race tactics and in-your-ear coaching at your BQ race.

FEES

This program does not include registration fees for the preparatory races we'll have you run every 4 weeks to gauge your progress or for your BQ attempt itself.
